    ★★★★

    For the longest time I’ve kind of been a Mothra hater. I don’t know, I just have. Giving this another watch though, it was great. I loved the cast in this one, they were all very fun. This feels very King Kong inspired, but it still feels fresh and unique.
    All the stuff on Infant Island was great, the sets looked really good. The scene where the fairies are performing on the stage was also great. Nelson was a total…

The scenes in space are really cool to look at,…

    The Secret of the Telegian

    ★★★½

    Jun Fukuda’s first appearance in this marathon, and a pretty solid way to start it off. Secret of the Telegian has a really fun concept all about teleportation. It’s a thriller mystery, even though it’s pretty easy to figure out who the killer is. Some tense killing scenes, great action sequences, and creepy set pieces, this one is a lot of fun. The ranch house scene at night is so spooky, and Nakamaru’s performance as Sudo is so creepy it…
